Scrap Dance Twist |
It was a delight to create this quilt with the easy to sew but interesting blocks in the design, using pastel colours that I don't usually work with, and finding those sweet fussy cut centre blocks to use up. See how the Mama is taking away a spool of thread from the kitten? So sweet!
I used warm and natural batting, which is my favourite for machine quilting. It is needle punched so it doesn't have scrim or glue, and it can be quilted with lines up to 10" apart. I just love it!
This is the back of the quilt. I had the yellow yardage and extended it with a strip of blue print inserted vertically and horizontally at the midpoint.
Everything used in making this quilt was from the stash... total win!
This quilt is being donated to my guild comfort quilt collection. We all know that violence and sexual abuse did not take a holiday during COVID, and my local guild donates quilts to the pediatric sexual assault treatment team at our local hospital.
Unfortunately is a very busy service all the time and the staff are grateful to have a quilt to wrap around a victim of abuse when they come into hospital. This is going to bring someone a big quilty hug and hopefully provide lots of comfort.
Finished size: 48" x 60"
Linking to Finished (or not) Friday

It is fantastic, Kathy, and such a great cause! This will bring comfort to someone in real need.
What a pretty quilt. Such lovely colours, reminds me of sugared almonds.
An early finish! Lovely colours! And for a good cause! Good on you.
A cute quilt for a great cause. You did it....done before the month's end!! Happy dance!
Congratulations on an early finish. It will be comfort to someone in need which is far better than being folded up in a closet.

It's such a lovely quilt, sure to bring comfort to someone in need, such ood cause you are donating too.
What an adorable quilt! I love the fussy cut bunnies, and the way the pink, blue and purple diagonal shapes move across the piece. Your quilting really enhanced that effect, too. Great finish for an important cause :)
A great finish Kathy. The quilt is beautiful and will help with the healing process for whoever receives it.
Lovely and so cute!
